Bosch GSR12V-31 12V Brushless Drill Driver, 2x 2.0Ah Batteries, GAL 12V-20 Charger & Bag

The Bosch PRO GSR12V-31 12V Brushless Drill/Driver is a compact yet powerful tool designed for professional users who need excellent manoeuvrability without compromising fastening performance.

Its brushless motor and redesigned gearbox help create a substantially shorter tool, making it particularly effective when drilling or screwdriving inside cabinets, between framework or anywhere conventional drills become awkward to position. Bosch states that the head length is 18% shorter than its predecessor.

Power has also been increased, with the Bosch PRO GSR12V-31 delivering 18Nm soft torque, 31Nm hard torque and up to 50Nm maximum torque. Bosch specifically highlights a 30% increase in soft torque compared with the predecessor, giving this compact 12V machine useful capability for everyday professional drilling and fastening.

A two-speed gearbox provides 0 to 420rpm in first gear and 0 to 1,700rpm in second gear, letting users move between controlled screwdriving and higher-speed drilling applications. Twenty torque settings provide further control, helping match fastening performance to different materials and fixing requirements.

The 10mm keyless chuck accepts accessories from 0.8 to 10mm and provides convenient accessory changes without needing a separate chuck key.

At only 0.8kg excluding the battery, the compact pistol-grip design is particularly manageable during repetitive work and applications where access is restricted. An integrated work light helps illuminate the immediate working area, while the battery indicator shows the remaining battery level.

For example, when installing cabinetry, the compact Bosch PRO GSR12V-31 can be used for drilling pilot holes and driving fixings inside restricted cabinet spaces. The shorter head improves access, while first gear and the multiple torque settings provide controlled fastening.

For drilling subsequent holes, switching to the faster second gear provides speeds up to 1,700rpm. The result is one lightweight cordless machine capable of moving efficiently between drilling and screwdriving tasks.

For tradespeople seeking a lightweight professional drill driver with serious capability, the Bosch Professional PRO GSR12V-31 combines up to 50Nm torque, brushless efficiency and excellent access in a highly portable 12V platform.
